Description:
Tan Chew Keong has reported a vulnerability in Kerio Personal Firewall, which can be exploited certain malicious processes to bypass certain security features provided by the product.
Kerio Personal Firewall includes an program execution protection feature, which allows users to restrict execution of programs on the system. However, it is possible for a malicious program to bypass this feature by restoring the running kernel's SDT (Service Descriptor Table) ServiceTable by writing directly to the "\Device\PhysicalMemory" section object.
Successful exploitation bypasses the protection and allows a malicious program to execute without prompting the user.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 4.0.16. Other versions may also be affected.
